nbc, i don't, i don't care for them. charles: that was jay leno taking one last jab at nbc on his final tonight show appearance. his 22-year-old run coming to an end. we're a minute away from the opening bell. joining us now is scott shellady. less than 200,000 jobs created in the past two months and your i know you're not happy about this. >> i'm not happy about this. there's two people i wouldn't want to be number one is edward snowden and number two, janet yellen. what is she going to do with what she's got before her, you can't taper the taper. and we've proven that free money is not going to make these guys hire people. they buy their stock back. i think that american business is telling us they're not quite sure of a recovery. they're worried about us slipping back and they don't know when, if there is going to be a recovery if it would happen. so we're in trouble here and i think it's going to be a precarious, two or three months

coming forward. charles: we're' going to talk about yellen a lot in the show today, but is this a bit of stress. you remember how much ben bernanke complained about fiscal policy. if money printing alone is not going to do it the administration has to come on board at some point. >> we've got a deep underlying problem that we don't know about and the money printing of free money is not doing it. what's it going to be? american business is afraid we don't know. charles: thanks a lot. scott, one thing we know you're the best, buddy, happy trading. and you can hear the ringing of the opening bell. just 8:31 after that number came off the dow is off 100 points in the pre-market session and now we're up slightly in the open, but a remarkable turn around. let's bring in ed. and let's get to it. a horrible jobs report and the market is up a little bit. does a lot of this have something to do with janet yellen coming it to the rescue? >> i have no idea. i can't explain why the market is up. charles, this is a disaster.

these numbers reconfirm over and over again the obama agenda when it it comes to economics is a nightmare. it's not working. we need 350,000 net new full-time jobs to create enough tax revenue to pay for our ongoing businesses. we have in the trailing 12, 180. you're a smart guy, you did it well in school. that's a 51. if your kid game home with a 51, charles, you'd get a tutor. this is control off the lead, change everything. and make one quick point. we're talking about weather and some people are blaming the weather. real discussion should be whether we should continue down this path and we shouldn't. it's a nightmare. charles: let's say that someone looked at the numbers and a knee jerk reaction and the private sector was 142,000. construction was up huge, up 48,000, manufacturing didn't do too bad. people are coming back into the work force. maybe there are needles in the

haystack and we shouldn't be too hasty about this? >> you know what i say to them? blah, blah, blah, that's nonsense. why aren't we up over 350,000? that's what we need and our pai policy stink. we can do well if this is better, nothing is better. it's a disaster, bottom line we need to change things. charles: hold it there for a second because i want to go to the floor of the new york stock exchange. nicole, show us what stocks are actually leading the dow higher. >> boeing, general electric, intel, each gaining, hoping to lead the dow along. boeing is gaining, 1.2%, and ge up 3/4 of a percent and intel up more than 1/2 a percent. charles: thanks, nicole. we have a couple of other stocks in the news as well. linkedin reported last night and down the shares go. you can see 210 a share.

sandra, you know, you look at the report and the sort of guidance that disappointed, it's pretty positive. >> it's a very positive report. not only did they produce a profit, but beat expectations and the quarter was impress tiff and the outlook, and that's why we saw shares tanking yesterday. as we opened this morning. the big thing is the comparison thing with the social networking sites. and facebook proved they were doing very well on mobile, they had a spectacular quarter and linked in, while the quarter was great. they're looking forward into 2014 and say they don't think this success is going to continue and that comparatively is-- >> and i think, by the way, for the full disclosure, my subscribers are in the stock and we're holding onto it. to your point this is giving us winners and losers, facebook up, twitter down, linked in off a little bit, but they also seem to be very conservative. i'm not sure why, you know, but it feels like their guidance may be just a little bit

conservative. >> well, and the big question, with all of these networking sites. can they prove that they can add users on a monthly annual basis going forward? that's the big struggle and what the advertisers want to see. facebook was able to prove that. >> and apple, speaking of technology. investing in itself. buying back 14 billion of its own stocks and those shares have opened up and see what apple is. up $8, and ed, you're still with us, i want your take on apple. >> sure, i mean, apple is a phenomenal company, but what the think is, i don't know where to put this money. i don't have confidence in expanding my business in certain areas, we've got all of this cash. when you hear a stock buyback, that's good in a lot of ways, they awe like our stocks more than we like doing something else with that. when they buy it back they say we like our company, but don't see any acquisitions we want to make. i love apple, everything in my life is apple, i'm a big apple

fan. charles: what you're saying is sort of an indictment against tim cook. it seemed that steve jobs was never out of ideas or at a loss where to go. google, they're buying this, spinning this off. has this company limited itself to the stock, no one watches it anymore? >> well, i think because 14 billion is very small relative to their cash position. let's not mistake the fact that they're buying it back and they're probably going to make quickses to do other things along the way, but they can't figure out what to do with that cash. they make a lot of money and right now they don't like the environment around the world for expansion based on really what the earnings reports have told us. they're the not really that confident on what to do with that cash and that's why carl icahn is out there trying to push them. >> some people think this move was aappease icahn. they better do something because investors haven't liked them for a while. nicole, back to activision, what's going on there?

>> new high. 19.95. up almost 14% at the moment. up over $2. when you think of activision, think of the titles for video games such as call of duty, yes, that's in my home, sky landers, yes, also in my home, and the pipeline, it's all about the pipeline for 2014. new titles for call of duty and skylander series. now i know what i'll be buying this year. charles: it's good to get an early jump on your christmas shopping. >> great. charles: yesterday was christmas for green mountain. up huge. how is it doing today? >> it's down just 1/2 a percent,.8. coca-cola a stake, they want to make single serve carbonated and noncarbonated with tea and juice. charles: sandra and wi were talking about twitter, a horrific day. any bounce back.

>> it's opposed to yesterday, it's getting back 2 1/4%. a tough week for twitter. charles: thanks a lot. we talk a lot about tech driving the markets and driving the economy, it's the place it put your money. right now we're joined by billionaire investor who has a different way to actually invest in technology. carl burke joins us from mountainview, california and you take investing in tech further and say technology plus biology is the future. explain that. >> well, charles, it's-- excuse me, very happy to be on your program. no, i've been investing in technology for the last 40 years and i stayed away from biology, but and medical because that's the fda. i said, you know, if you have the fda adds another negative to your chance of succeeding. and suddenly, about six years

ago, i made a decision that i'm going to try and do something that will have an impact on the world and got involved in this company that basically has a revolutionary approach to doing medicine. and it's what we're doing, we're using biology and computer technology and software. and it's a revolutionary way to do it. charles: carl, that's a broad statement and sounds exciting, but you've got to give us more detail. revolutionary, what's it going to do? how? >> okay, basically, we take and analyze the disease. we take and look at people that are healthy and people that are not healthy and have that disease. then we take all of the data, we eliminate no data, we run this through stats and computer, supercomputer doing 41 trillion

transactions and we come up with targets for drugs and also targets to determine if people are going to get that drug. charles: so what you're talking about is designing specific medicines for individuals, designer applications for individuals and also being able to predict who will get what sort of disease before they get it and maybe taking appropriate treatment, is that what we're talking about? >> absolutely. you're absolutely right on and we're going to be able to do it in a much cheaper price. we have a lot fewer people that have to be involved. and basically, we get a -- we're using not chemical drugs like most-- 90%. charles: you're using biology. carl, we've got to let you go there, it sounds like an amazing venture. biology, technology will make all of our lives betterer. we wish you luck, appreciate it.

>> thank you. charles: and the stock is up despite that bad jobs report, what's your opinion, why do we have this reversal. >> and i want 0 counter ed butowsky's decision earlier in the show. i talked to a money manager, why would this go up? job participation rate. >> you mentioned it's the-- >> hovering around. >> hovering around the highest and looking for a catalyst in the rally market. that being said the bond market is up this morning as well. yields fell as low as 2.63%, charles, that doesn't indicate growth and there's a huge rotation out. charles: we've got them on the screen, it's down. >> out of u.s. stocks and into the bond market and city research looked at it and record inflow into the u.s. bond market, 14.8 billion dollars in the u.s.-- >> let's call it the great re-rotation because right now we're supposed to be getting out of bonds into stocks and who

knows why it happened. and we had the 10-year up. we're down just a little bit. hey, we're calling it a jobless winter and the white house will surely blame the weatherment our labor department insider is going to weigh in next. ♪ (announcer) scottrade knows our clients trade and invest their own way. with scottrade's smart text, i can qukly undetand my charts, and spend more time trading. their quick trade bar lets my account follow me online plusmy local scottrade office sois there to help.eal-time. because they know i don't trade like everybody. i trade like me.

1259. we're talking lower profit and disappointing outlook from cigna health care. those shares are down $7 almost 9%. 77.98 and ibm is exploring to selling the chip business sending the stock slightly higher. up almost $2. i want to get back this jobs report. we're calling it the jobless winter. the white house says, quote, if the labor market is moving in the right direction. charles: i'm not sure what direction they think is the right direction. but maybe paul conway knows, a former labor department chief of staff under george w. bush. we have one net jobs are moving in the right direction, but this is obviously a huge disappointment. >> it has to be a disappointment. look, last month one of the president's architects of his economic policy was on here saying one jobs report in one month does not tell a story. i think it's important to look at the trend line. labor force participation rate. if you go back and look, it's been stuck there.

62.8, 63%, the job creation number is low. it's very problematic because you need 150,000 jobs per month just to absorb new workers. so, it's very disappointing when you see the numbers coming in like they are today. even with adjustments, you're not hitting pace you need to just absorb new workers. charles: the market was off 100 points as a knee jerk reaction and started to come back. if we look at this objectively. what if someone said to you, paul, let's go beneath the hood. 142,000 jobs might be revised next month. 48,000 jobs, manufacturing jobs coming back and maybe we're missing something here. what would you tell them? >> what i would say, look, when you have a january jobs report and you have things thrown out there, like it's the weather and these other factors, fine, let's take a look at it again next month, but my point here still is this, you're not creating enough jobs to bring back those who have been unemployed for a long time and you're not

creating enough jobs to be absorb new workers. take a look at individual sector, for example, employment for young americans 18 to 29. if you look at those on the side line that's over 15%. 15.9%. look at bls data i think that is telling. the bls data for those young americans with a college degree, 50% are in jobs that don't require one and one third are in jobs that don't require a high school diploma. the problem is the economy is not expanding. you don't have the job creation and don't have the creation of jobs that train people to have the skills to manage people, budgets and projects for their next careers. charles: you're hitting on a lot of great points that i think obviously need to be discussed a lot more, particularly the skills gap and skills problem we have. i want to ask, everybody is pointing to the obama administration and i returned from madison, wisconsin, and spoke to a thousand business

leaders, it was amazing. people say please, let's have a cease-fire. is there any way to get traction in the economy if the president remains rigid with the policy? >> i don't think so. i don't think he's defending a philosophy, i think he's defending an ideology and the ideology places emphasis on government and government programs versus the individual and individual aspiration. and i think there are enough good people in the democratic party, in the republican party who could actually work together and say, look, there's an american ethic, which is hard work and that liberty does not equal dependency. i think what you heard with the cbo report was a white house spin somehow we're doing people a favor by making them more dependent. charles: it's bad enough we have the spirits and enough them out. thank you. tim armstrong isn't use today

already tried to retract the comments and issued a statement to his employees saying how our company supports families when they're in need and we'll continue supporting members of the aol family. what a pr disaster, this guy. how is he at the helm of a major corporation. charles: a media corporation at that. a media corporation, we're not talking about somebody who never talks to the media and isn't friends with the anna winto yours and martha stuarts of the world. he's a pompous jerk. that's what it comes down to. he's the king of his fiefdom and he can say whatever he wants without consequences except there are starting to be some. >> of a working mother of an 8 month old baby i can say these comments are extremely sensitive. to single out two women working at the company on the conference call in this way, it's really disgusting. >> to the fellow employees, it's a shame. thanks a lot. we talk a lot about technology leading the way, but is there such a thing of too much

charles: let's take a look at the big board. sort of struggling. one hour ago we were down 100 points. not too bad. we are calling this the jobless winter. if you combined december and january that not enough jobs. a reminder of progress has been made. wait, there is more, the unemployment rate down to the lowest level in more than five years. no mention of the historic low participation rate. extending unemployment benefits to 1.7 billion people is crucial. monica, i want your reaction on that. >> that is what they have been fighting for. that is what the republicans were able to filibuster.

it is interesting that they keep using the word progress. it is the progressive policies that have been this huge wet blanket. we just celebrated reagan's birthday yesterday. he would have been 100 years old. charles: this kind of anemic job creation, and we do not even know how accurate these numbers are, is pathetic. they are always getting revised. everyone thought that december would be revised significantly. liz: it is sort of a curb your enthusiasm moment. as for the policy part of it, set aside the political atmosphere coming out of washington, d.c. when you look at the breakdown

of who is unemployed and the dropouts, the dropouts are continuing to drive that down. you have tens of thousands dropping out. these are the people that you need to help float health reform. i love the quote from gertrude stein. everyone get so much information that they lose their common sense. there is common sense thinking that needs to be in place. we should be well north of 200,000 jobs a month. >> the on -- unemployed have been liberated. >> they have been liberated from the health insurance also. charles: tuesday it was my money making pick how are those shares

faring? nicole: it hit a high of 69.97. it only helps the one-year number. charles: not too bad. thanks a lot. staffers at the labor department tell the national review that taxpayer resources and employee time are being wasted on frivolous projects like book clubs or the national poetry contest. they are always favored over long-time employees. the shenanigans began under held us to lease anchored to do under the new secretary. when you have someone come in and they put their people in place to mitigate that is

frustrating. >> the one series story that is underlined is these workers in the labor department and veterans affairs association and the epa and irs, they are full-time staffers doing full-time union work. charles: there is still something to be made. >> it is really something when the long-standing bureaucrats feel compelled to throw the political appointees under the bus. for them to come out and say that local the political appointees are being favored over us. of course. taxpayer dollars being used to fund their salaries, funded activities, fund the department.

we hear about these stories and report on bernie and company almost every week. they are running wild wasting our money. liz: they still want to raise our taxes rather than fixing a reform. charles: the obama administration is considering another extension of the existing health insurance expansion plans. it could be extended for an additional three years. is this just sort of an election year ploy? >> the timing hasn't based on political calculations. they frontloaded that stuff. the people would get this impression that it was good.

now they are starting to back load it after 2014. now this is the latest move to move some of the worst stuff. >> if you like your plan, you can still keep it. now they are realizing that the younger workers cannot afford insurance so they need these cheaper plans to come into the system. initially, the administration treated theee ads a rounding error. charles: expedia having a huge session.
